Prefrontal cortex Unfortunately, the map by Walker was not based on a comparative investigation of the cytoarchitecture of the human and macaque monkey prefrontal cortex and, as a result, the Fiber pathways nomenclature and the criteria for demarcating areas in the two species are not always consistent.

The cerebral cortex can be divided into several distinct which they were located. The stereotaxic map of Talairach cytoarchitectonic areas on the basis of differences in cell size (Talairach and Tournoux, 1988) was adopted by the functional and type and in the arrangement of the in the various neuroimaging community to provide a standard proportional cortical layers, such as differences in cell density, the pres- stereotaxic space within which all brains could be trans- ence or absence of certain layers, and the relative thickness of formed in order to correct, partially, for differences in size and the layers. The first complete cytoarchitectonic maps to be shape and permit reporting of the structural or functional published were those of Campbell (1905), who divided the neuroimaging findings in a common stereotaxic space (see human cerebral cortex into a few general regions, and the Brett et al., 2002). Gradually, the Talairach stereotaxic space, map of the monkey (Cercopithecus) cerebral cortex published which was based on one brain, evolved into the Montreal by Brodmann (1905). A little later, Brodmann (1908, 1909, 1914) Neurological Institute (MNI) standard proportional stereotaxic published his famous map of the human cerebral cortex. In space (MNI space) that was based on several brains (Collins Brodmann’s maps, several cortical areas were identified and et al., 1994).

However, area 45 as shown by that we labeled the infraprincipal dimple (Fig. 3B). Note that Walker extends all the way to the ventralmost tip of the this area as defined by Petrides and Pandya (1999, 2002a) using inferior branch of the arcuate sulcus (Fig. 2B) from where the criteria of area 45 of the human brain is not coincidental oculomotor responses have never been evoked.

The designation “area the large and the small amplitude parts of the frontal 47” has not been used in any of the maps of the monkey brain, eye field of the monkey lie at the interface of area 6 with area 8 but Walker (1940) labeled a large part of the ventrolateral and do not include area 45 if the latter is defined by the criteria frontal region as “area 12” (see Fig. 2B). Medial to area 12 on the used to identify area 45 in the human brain (Petrides et al., orbital frontal region, Walker labeled the cortex as “area 13”, 2005). Furthermore, we were able to show that neuronal caudally, and “area 11”, rostrally.

This Walker’s area 12 corresponds to only a part of conclusion is consistent with everything known about areas 47, namely the part that covers the ventralmost portion of the 44 and 45 of the human brain, which have never been linked to ventrolateral frontal region and extends as far as the lateral oculomotor function and instead have been linked to orbital sulcus. We therefore labeled this part of Brodmann’s controlled memory retrieval (see Petrides, 1996). area 47 as “area 47/12” to acknowledge the architectonic Finally, we addressed the question of the part of the correspondence between these cortical regions in the two macaque monkey ventrolateral frontal region that corre- primate brains (Fig. 3).

Fig. 4 e The dorsal (superior longitudinal fasciculus and arcuate fasciculus) and the ventral (extreme capsule fasciculus) pathways linking perisylvian parietal and temporal cortical regions with the homologues of Broca’s region in the macaque monkey brain. The dorsal pathway (in red) is the superior longitudinal fasciculus (SLF) which originates from cortical areas of the inferior parietal lobule and terminates in areas 44, 45B, and 45A of Broca’s region. Fibers originating from the caudal part of the arch around the caudal end of the lateral fissure forming the arcuate fasciculus (AF) and blend with the fibers of the superior longitudinal fasciculus in the white matter of the inferior parietal lobule. The ventral (area 6), which controls the orofacial musculature, receives its strongest input from the most rostral part of the inferior parietal lobule (area PF) via a part of the superior longitudinal fasciculus (in green). The ventral pathway (in yellow) is the extreme capsule fasciculus (ECF) which originates from cortical areas of the intermediate and anterior superior temporal region, courses through the extreme capsule, and terminates primarily in area 45.

Areas 44 and 45 in the left hemisphere of the human brain are inputs, the homologs of Broca’s region receive input from the considered to constitute the anterior language region, often mid-lateral temporal region via the extreme capsule (Fig. 4). The known as Broca’s region (Amunts et al., 1999; Petrides and extreme capsule fasciculus was first demonstrated by Petrides Pandya, 2002a). Besides the theoretical importance for and Pandya (1988) but, in the earlier study, we had not language evolution of the demonstration of areas 44 and 45 in described the ventrolateral frontal inputs as terminating in the ventrolateral frontal cortex of the macaque monkey, this areas 44 or 45 since these areas had not been defined at the time. research opened up the possibility of examining in detail the In our re-examination of these inputs in 2009, it was clear that axonal pathways that bring input into the macaque areas that most of the axons coursing through the extreme capsule from are homologs of Broca’s region. We therefore re-examined the the temporal region terminated in area 45, with a minor parietal and temporal inputs of these newly defined ventrolat- contingent terminating in area 44.
